"The problems with aspartame include not only the biochemical nature of this toxin but also it sheds light on the political nature of the players involved. The changes in regulatory policies and regulations resulting from corporate-government ties and the politicians closely associated with these ties. What I can tell you, regarding toxicology, histology and biochemistry, is that aspartame is neurotoxic. Its components easily transcend the blood-brain barrier, interfering with normal nerve cell function. This affects the glutathione and calcium mechanisms in place, destroying nerve call integrity. The methanol then breaks down into formaldehyde-formic acid components, which denaturizes/mutates the DNA: a known scientific fact. The subsequent result from this interaction and from isolates of genetically modified amino acids, the methanol, is nerve cell necrosis and subsequent organ system degradation"

Many thanks to Indymedia for allowing space on your web site to raise awareness about this ongoing crisis.
Two days from now, August 27th, is Cork City Council's deadline for receiving submissions on the accommodation needs of Travellers over the next 4 years. Was it naivety or a calculated move to advertise seeking submissions at the one time of the year when Travellers (and Traveller organisations) are not around?
The following was submitted today by the Traveller Visibility Group.
If anybody else is in a position to make a submission, the person to write to is Jim Beecher, Housing Section, Cork City Council.
The e-mail address to use is jim_beecher@corkcity.ie and please copy your submissions to tvg@indigo.ie

This essay argues that the conflict in the Persian Gulf is conditioned by the needs of American capitalism, and thus whether a Democrat or a Republican, a war hero or a draft dodger, sits in the Oval Office, it will make no difference to the propensity of the American state to commit acts of mass violence. An argument which is held up as a true by the record of Clinton, a man who recently received adulation in Dublin, yet whose administration slew far more than that of either Bush Snr. or Jnr. read full story / add a comment

Racism is alive and well in Ireland. Only the very dishonest or the very naïve can deny it. We all knew it was bad, we only had to listen to our friends, neighbours and workmates. We only had to look at how generations of Travellers were treated. But the result of the citizenship referendum really opened our eyes to how widespread it is. read full story / add a comment
